Product Details
If your rear hatch does not stay up or sags down when the weather changes then the solution is to replace the two hydraulic struts. Don’t replace just one as the other is likely to fail soon. These instructions include 14 pictures and are 5 pages in length. They can be printed in the standard 8 1/2 x 11 inch format.
